The M65 jacket is one of the most recognizable elements of 20th-century military uniforms. The NyCo Sateen fabric is highly breathable and mechanically resistant. Nylon increases durability and abrasion resistance, while cotton improves comfort during prolonged use. This breathable fabric is designed for outdoor work in variable weather conditions for many hours. Weather adaptability The jacket is equipped with a removable warm liner, making it suitable for colder conditions. The liner is fastened with buttons, and once removed, the M65 functions as a lighter transition jacket. Functional adjustment of the M65 jacket Additional waist adjustment provides a better fit and helps reduce heat loss. The jacket offers excellent performance in the field, at the shooting range, during outdoor activities, and even as part of everyday military-inspired clothing. Construction based on decades of experience. Foldable hood in the collar The integrated hood hidden inside the characteristic collar remains invisible when not in use. When conditions worsen, it offers extra protection against wind and cold. Zipper with storm flap and snap buttons The main zipper is covered by a storm flap fastened with snap buttons, which limits wind penetration and heat loss, creating an effective barrier against cold air. Adjustable cuffs Adjustable cuffs allow you to adapt the sleeves to your wrists or gloves, helping to retain heat and improve comfort in colder conditions. The M65 jacket is equipped with four large front pockets. They are arranged in a characteristic symmetrical configuration and allow you to comfortably carry essential equipment, gloves, or small accessories.
